Russell E Glaue commented on GERONIMO-6281:
-------------------------------------------
"
For activemq.data, you just need to use a relative path for a new instance. For
example, if the instance name is GERONIMO_SERVER=inst1, then you set it like
this:
activemq.data=inst1/var/activemq
No need to add a absolute path there.
"
The problem is that ActiveMQ access "activemq.data" relative to the directory
you are in when you start Geronimo.
That is if you start Geronimo, without the no configured instances, like this:
- $ cd /opt
- $ export GERONIMO_HOME=/opt/geronimo
- $ /opt/geronomo/bin/geronimo start
Then ActiveMQ uses the following path as "activemq.data":
- /opt/var/activemq
In this scenario, we want ActiveMQ to use {{GERONIMO_HOME/var/activemq}}, and
not {{PWD/var/activemq}}
For the configured instance example you provide, ActiveMQ would create
{{/opt/inst1/var/activemq}}. It would not use
{{/opt/geronimo/inst1/var/activemq}} as you would expect.
Now take for example that I want to start Geronimo as a unix service.
If {{GERONIMO_HOME=/opt/geronimo}}
And the unix service starts geronimo in {{/}} (file system root)
ActiveMQ will create {{/var/activemq}}
ActiveMQ does not use {{GERONIMO_HOME/var/activemq}} as you would be expecting
Geronimo will fail to start if it is being started by a non-root user since
ActiveMQ will not have permissions to create {{/var/activemq}}
How do we address this?
My recommendation is to change ActiveMQ to use org.apache.geronimo.server.dir
as the base path and not PWD.

> This issue is related to GERONIMO-6270 , GERONIMO-6175 , GERONIMO-6174 ,
> GERONIMO-5987 , and is being used to specifically track modifications related
> to correctly using the following properties:
> # org.apache.geronimo.home.dir (GERONIMO_HOME)
> # org.apache.geronimo.server.dir (GERONIMO_SERVER - new shell variable
> introduced in GERONIMO-6275)
> # karaf.base
> # karaf.home
> Primary issue to be resolved: The org.apache.geronimo.home.dir property
> (GERONIMO_HOME) is being referenced when the org.apache.geronimo.server.dir
> property (GERONIMO_SERVER) should be instead.
> I have identified three places in Geronimo errors are occurring due to
> improper use of the above java properties:
> # SnapshotConfigXMLBuilder - originally reported in GERONIMO-6270
> # ActiveMQ - is reported in a comment of GERONIMO-5987 , and is being
> reported here as requested.
> # Karaf - is additionally reported in GERONIMO-6174 .
> Note the three issues in startup:
> # Karaf initialization script etc/shell.init.script
> -- Error in initialization script: /opt/geronimo3/etc/shell.init.script (No
> such file or directory)
> -- Reason:
> --- This is because karaf.home/etc/shell.init.script is being accessed when
> instead it should be karaf.base/etc/shell.init.script
> -- Solution:
> --- The {karaf.base} property should be the same value as the
> {org.apache.geronimo.server.dir} property

> # ActiveMQ var/activemq/ directory and Lock File
> -- WARN [AMQPersistenceAdapter] Waiting to Lock the Store var/activemq
> -- Reason:
> --- This is because the ActiveMQ will create and use a var directory relative
> to the path in which Geronimo was started (Note this may not be the actual
> GERONIMO_HOME or GERONIMO_SERVER directory).
> --- If two Geronimo instances are started from the same directory, they will
> share the same var directory, thus they will both want to use the same
> ActiveMQ lock file. This will conflict in the usage of other files in
> var/activemq too.

> Setup for reproducing the errors:
> Follow the example for running multiple instances within the Geronimo Wiki,
> here:
> #
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDOC30/Running+multiple+Geronimo+instances
> # Then remove the GERONIMO_HOME/var and GERONIMO_HOME/etc directories
> # Create an empty file $PWD/var/monitoring to prevent
> SnapshotConfigXMLBuilder from creating $PWD/var/monitoring when it discovers
> it does not exist
> The errors can be reproduced setting up Geronimo as directed and using the
> start procedure below, resulting with the startup output given. The patch in
> GERONIMO-6275 was applied which allows the easier start procedure of Geronimo
> instances. However, the patch is not necessary to reproduce the errors. Use
> the start scripts in the above mentioned wiki page for "running multiple
> geronimo instances" as an alternative. The snapshot
> geronimo-tomcat7-javaee6-3.0-SNAPSHOT-20111220 was used for testing.
